The terms of several Board of Education members including Mrs. Shergian Graham Harris John Keating Thomas Galligher Edwin Rowland Edward Tilden and B C Dudeley expire at month end most likely to be renewed.

A fragment invites readers to visit Lange Brothers in the Tribune Building at Trearborn and Madison streets for high quality goods at reasonable prices. The prose shifts to cryptic quips about England, islands, and social remarks, ending with a note about President Marroquin and atomic theory.
A whimsical collage recalls a Russian prank at St Petersburg zoological gardens causing panic by shouting tigers escaped and a joking American who shouts fire in venues.

J Graham Phelps Stokes, heir to New York wealth, has chosen a life of service over luxury.
